I often get a bit fed up if I dont win for a while and I find it helps to take a break for a few days. I try to look at it as a long term hobby as sometimes it can take ages to find out you have won after a comp ends so I dont worry if a month or 2 go's by without a win. I disagree with the comment above that you shouldnt expect to win because of course you will win if you enter enough comps but if your not enjoying comping it is probably time for a break.0

Make sure u have:
Firefox
Split pannel/fox splitter
roboform (paid version-cheaper in dollars)
snaplinks
I also have a quite few extra add ons, my fave is tab counter as it simply tells me how many tabs i have open so i have a rough count of how many comps i have open x All above can be found easily on Mozilla addons xxx
With those u are gonna use ur comping time more wisely and hopefully as it's a numbers game u will see more wins xxx
Try and use folders on ur toolbars, i have daily comps , problem comps, effort comps folders set up so as i comp and come across these i just drag and drop into the correct folder. xxxxxxxxx#JusticeForGrenfell0 -

Whats the benefit to the paid version of roboform? I use the free version and fond it really helpful but If the paid version is better maybe I should upgrade?0 -
I save every form, so any site that doesn't have a captcha that i revisit for a comp i just click the fill and submit button, I also can store many more passwords etc, its less than £20 if u do it in dollars and is def worth the pennies xxxxxxxx#JusticeForGrenfell0

Strangely enough I find that when I start thinking "is it worth it" along comes a surprise win to keep me going, but you really need to do hundreds of comps. I do loads a week and dont win half as much as many on here but Im optimistic and youve gotta to be in it to win it. Keep going, something will turn up soon.2008£3002009£13002010£15002011£41952012£21942013£1494

I find this a lovely hobby and do love it when I win things - and I have had some fabulous prizes even though I do not enter hundreds of comps as some do.
The bonus I find is I am always up with the latest trends, in the know about new films and books etc all because I enter comps.
I suppose I am the person comps are designed for because I usually have a look around most sites that I enter comps from. This of course does mean I do not enter as many as I could but I do enjoy what I do.
My winnings have included an ipad, weekends in hotels, a wonderful camera, portable dvd, festival tickets and loads of smaller things which is lovely.
Have a little break and come back to it fresh - it is I feel mostly down to luck but I think the more you enter the luckier you may be.
Hope you have a lovely win soon.Be Lucky Everyone0 -
take it u werent expecting to win your winnings ?
It probably works out about 15p per comp entered, I enter thousands every month. My OH works shifts and I spend a lot of time alone, so it passes the time for me.Luck is believing you’re lucky – Tennessee Williams
